Illuminated Advertising Display, 1990s
Metal, Acrylic
87 cm (H) x 217 cm (W) x 15 cm (D)

This large-scale rectangular light box functions as a graphic artifact of mid-to-late 20th-century commercial signage. The piece is constructed with a robust green-painted metal frame that houses a translucent acrylic panel, printed with the branding for Sidi Ali mineral water in bold Arabic typography and multilingual text. When illuminated, the internal light source radiates through the surface, intensifying the vibrant green and white gradient while casting an ambient, focused light outward into the surrounding space. Its monolithic, architectural presence transforms a functional commercial object into a sculptural element, asserting a strong visual anchor within a room.

Condition: Very good. The metal frame and acrylic surface exhibit an authentic patina consistent with historical commercial use.
